Retro Corner - Sheena and the Rokkets' "You May Dream"


Part punk, part The Ronette's "Be My Baby", Sheena & the Rokkets' "You May Dream" (1979) immediately hooked me. It's one of those songs I wish would never end (well, except when I need to stop listening to music.) All the parts are memorable, magical, and catchy.

It actually took me a while to realize the dialogue in the middle was in English. I also found a live performance of this song on YouTube, but I couldn't even tell she was singing in any language! So it doesn't seem to matter what language the song is sung or spoken in, and I'm totally fine with that.
